A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 284

Eleanor went silent and didn’t reply to him. Her indifferent eyes seemed emotionless, leaving Ethan puzzled.

A few seconds later, he nonchalantly said, “If you don’t answer, just stay by my side and continue being Emilia’s substitute…”

Eleanor clenched her fists and asked instead, “So, Mr. Ziegler, can we get divorced?”

Upon hearing this, Ethan mistook her admission for capitulation, and a scornful sneer crept onto his face. “You’re nothing like your sister. Had she been hurt, she’d never return. Yet, a few honeyed words from that wretch, and you readily throw yourself back into his arms.”

Eleanor remained silent and agreed with him, “Yeah, I’m nothing like my sister. You know this well but still forced me to be her…”

Ethan’s expression froze, and he didn’t respond. Eleanor continued, “Mr. Ziegler, I’m well aware that you see me as my sister not just because of this heart but also to alleviate your guilt towards her.”

Ethan scoffed upon hearing this. ‘How could I possibly feel guilty towards her?”
